Liverpool need to be patient with Jurgen Klopp, says Paul Merson

The Colombian played in Joaquin Correa for a 72nd minute equaliser in a game which finished 2-2.

"Managers don't know everything about the Premier League after being here for a year-and-a-half - it will take Klopp time". Joe Gomez at the other end was not as lucky and was indeed sent off in the dying moments of the game.

"However, in the second half when a similar thing took place, the ball came to me and we were losing and chasing the game, I still made a decision to throw the ball away to try and make up what I had done in the first half".

The former Liverpool midfielder, speaking on Irish TV channel RTE, said Klopp has not improved the team's defence or the squad overall in the last 18 months.
